The Backstreet Boys Announce Explosive 2026 World Tour — A Nostalgic Comeback for the Ages
Get ready to relive the magic — the Backstreet Boys are back, and they’re ready to take the world by storm once again. The legendary pop group has officially announced their 2026 World Tour, marking one of their biggest global undertakings in more than a decade. Set to kick off in May 2026, the tour will span over 40 cities across North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, bringing together generations of fans for a celebration of music, memories, and timeless charm.
Dubbed the “DNA: Forever Tour,” this global spectacle will feature the group’s greatest hits — from I Want It That Way and Everybody (Backstreet’s Back) to As Long As You Love Me — alongside new tracks from their upcoming studio album, expected in early 2026. Known for their flawless harmonies, dynamic choreography, and magnetic stage presence, AJ McLean, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter, Kevin Richardson, and Brian Littrell are promising a show that blends nostalgia with cutting-edge production and fresh energy.
“We’ve grown up with our fans, and this tour is our way of saying thank you for sticking with us through every era,” Nick Carter said during the announcement livestream. “It’s going to be the biggest and most emotional tour we’ve ever done.”
In true Backstreet Boys fashion, the shows will include spectacular visuals, interactive fan experiences, and heartfelt tributes to the band’s three decades in music.
Tickets for the DNA: Forever Tour go on sale worldwide on December 10, 2025, with fan club presales beginning a week earlier.
For fans old and new, this isn’t just a tour — it’s a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience the return of the world’s most beloved boy band in full force. The Backstreet Boys are, indeed, back!
